MAGIC wasn’t going to matter much …

Demon Prince: Flickering Fire
Night Goblin Shaman: Vindictive Glare, Gork’ll Fix It

DEPLOYMENT

We decided to play Battleline, my Mundane Terrain Chart vomited up two buildings, an impassable ruin, a hill, a wood, a marsh and a pond. Scattered them around, plopped models down, etc:



Spider riders tentatively vanguarded a bit, then Chaos grabbed the first turn like a champ and ran with it.

TURN ONE



Spawn motor up slightly above average, warriors amble along with them, and Skullflux the demon prince slams forward to get the madness started. Fanatics are flung from the left archers, but none contact the prince. A powerful 10+1 magic phase results in a dispel scrolled 6-dice flicker aimed at the goblin shaman, and the prince’s roar does nothing to the doom diver. Hoorah.



With a squeaky ‘Ere We Go!’ the left goblin archers fling themselves into the towering demon prince, charging through two fanatics and sitting on a third. Casualties are low(ish), and preposterously the archers pass panic on the way in. The spider riders decide this is as good a time as any and charge into the prince’s rear (voluntarily, as opposed to the archers’ animosity-induced rampage), followed by the fanatics spinning about - one through the archers (), another headed for the doom diver. Other gobs reform, back up or, in the case of the other archers, psychotically advance a bit. Another 10+1 magic phase sees the prince swat aside the shaman’s attempt to fix him, and the follow up glare against a spawn result in no wounds.



Combat goes … decidedly poorly for the green skins, as expected. Everybody fails fear, the archers net themselves, the prince cackles madly and reduces the archers to three gore-covered nincompoops. Said poops run screaming from combat, while the spiders fail steadfast and take off. The prince devours the archer standard and holds.

Oh, and the other archers pick a wound off a spawn at long range! And the doom diver killed a warrior too! Exalt for shooting phase!

TURN TWO



Skullflux eyes an opening and leaps into the doom diver, releasing more fanatics, which wound the war machine as well as the prince. Spawn spawn forward, warriors shamble along with their charges. Magic, roar, whatever.



The doom diver is exploded, and the prince pauses to see how the little vermin take it - the shaman passes panic, while disaster strikes and the unit with warboss and BSB flees, bouncing across units and through ruins. The goblins they ran through could care less, far too busy laughing at their erstwhile leader … Then Skully smashes into the shaman as anticipated.



Disaster continues to strike, as the goblin command fails to rally and heads off the table The spiders (needing a 6 rather than the HQ’s 8) rally like champs though Archer remnants flee (and will continue to do so). Then goblins move, fanatics twirl (one flies off the table), and magic has the dastardly shaman fix the demon prince (…), irresistibly, losing his magic levels in the process. Mere moments later Skullflux t-stomps the little blighter to goo - and the chaos gods don’t care because demon prince don’t get Eye of the Gods

TURN THREE



A small galaxy of fanatics is unleashed as the right spawn ambles into 8” of both right goblin units, though the only casualty is a wound off that gribbly. Then spawn lurch, warriors shuffle, and demon prince flies over to plop in front of the freshly-evacuated spear gobs, cheekily showing them his rear. Oh, and the Duke, BSB to the Dark Gods, switches warrior units … With bits of shaman still stuck between his toes, Skullflux cooks a fanatic with a 3 S6 flickering fire, then 12 roars another to mist (fixed or not!)



Another ‘Ere We Go!’ echoes across the village as the leftmost speargobs attempt to charge the Duke’s warriors, failing horribly of course (needed a 10). Despite being free of animosity, the other speargobs rush into the exposed rear of the prince, preparing for glory. Fanatic phase sees nutters choke themselves here, crush a startling number of warriors there, and narrowly miss spawn over yonder. In combat, the demon screams incoherently, and the goblins look at each confusedly until the speargob with the fancier hood pushes himself to the fore to see what the problem is. The prince immediately devours him, then stubbornly turns and shoves the rest of the rabble back.

Also, the spider riders tick a wound off their incoming spawn.

TURN FOUR



With a series of mighty lurches, the spawn get to grips with their prey, nabbing the spider riders to the left and double-nabbing the archers to the right. The warriors once more twiddle their thumbs. With no magic or roaring, it’s all about the fighting. The left spawn takes a wound but clubs a spider, winning by one but the elite forest goblins hold steadfastly. The archers meanwhile kill the wounded spawn (!!), however take enough damage from the cuddles of the other spawn to flub their steadfast 5 and head over to the bus stop back to Goblin Cave. Also, Skullflux (despite being netted) smashes the living hell out of some speargobs. Who steadfastly wet themselves and stick around.



OMG more fanatics happen!! A couple warriors die, a couple fanatics die, archers leave the table and head home. Fight phase, another spider is nommed by the spawn, breaking them but failing to catch. Then the prince verminates some goblins and runs them down.

TURN FIVE



Despite the taunting of the goblin general, the BSB’s warriors refuse to trample through a field of fanatics just to punch green things in the face. (Tempting as that may be ) Mostly, the prince hops over and roars a fanatic down, with his half-hearted 4-dice flicker stopped with 6 dispel dice.



Fanatics spin, die and kill another warrior!

TURN SIX



Alright pay attention, this is where things get momentarily complicated. Skullflux charges the last of the speargobs, who fail terror and flee from his Coruscating Awesome Field. The Duke commands his warriors to Get In On This, so they charge the gobs, causing them to kick over past the house. And then the left spawn trots over and eats all 28 goblins (as compulsory movement allows no further charge reaction). Fat and happy, he takes a nap. The other spawn similarly lands on some fleeing goblins and wolfs them down, though these are just those irritating archers from a couple hours earlier. And then the prince roars and ‘splods yet another fanatic, out of spite.



A fanatic kills itself, but the other one sensibly hides behind a building to escape Skullflux’s nuclear halitosis.

EXPLOSIVE WOT BEATDOWN

So yes, all that happened.

Warriors seem underwhelming here. DP was crazy good. While funny, that many fanatics can't be good.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3467683.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3467683.page GMT Warriors of Tzeentch vs Night Goblins 1500 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3467696.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3467696.page GMT Warriors of Tzeentch vs Night Goblins 1500
Nicely done that spawn is a champ and dp did a lot.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3467720.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3467720.page GMT Warriors of Tzeentch vs Night Goblins 1500
The daemon prince rocked though, wouldnt be a personal choice of mine, but he mowed through an unholy amount of gobbos.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3467957.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3467957.page GMT Warriors of Tzeentch vs Night Goblins 1500
First time I've seen a DP in Action (In Fantasy) Seems like he pulled his weight though.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3468266.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3468266.page GMT Warriors of Tzeentch vs Night Goblins 1500
Although guess your prince is a bigger one! I liked how he did most of the work while the warriors failed to actually get into proper combat. They make good target practice though]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3468278.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3468278.page GMT Warriors of Tzeentch vs Night Goblins 1500

What more do you want? You're already a Daemon Prince, the most destructive force known to... Okay, can't finish that.

Good writeup- great diagrams!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3471630.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3471630.page GMT Warriors of Tzeentch vs Night Goblins 1500 DP- seems like he was mostly unharmed despite triggering quite a few! Same to the warriors, although it looks like one of the spawn triggered those for them.

Nice bat rep . DP, a spawn, and self-infliction seem to have done most of the killing which is pretty great!

I'm also about to build my 3 spawn, so this is a nice coincidence . Also very good to see you playing with WoC again!

I'll have to point this one out to my WoC opponent. Might improve his generally low opinion of Spawn ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3490573.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3490573.page GMT Warriors of Tzeentch vs Night Goblins 1500 DP could have killed the whole Goblin army by himself!

What program do you use to make these awesome graphics?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3491761.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/405035/3491761.page GMT Warriors of Tzeentch vs Night Goblins 1500 No promises on when there will be more chaos mayhem, though I am slowly getting the WoT crew back up to 2500 to take a break from my skaven, so hopefully sooner than later. So stay tuned, and expect more demon prince and trollgasm shenanigans

I use Battle Chronicler, which is both fantastic and free

Red_Zeke uses powerpoint to add captions to actual photos, which looks great and I think might be a bit less labor intensive (although not That much less, as I tried that, too before reverting to normal pictures for now...).

the DP did everything lol. its Okay, us Dwarves will call a temporary truce since you smacked some greenskins around xD it almost seems like that Greenskins list was built of some BFSP action. add the Fanatics and nets to your 20 Spears from BFSP and you can get 28 of em. get another regiment and grab a "Lord" and War Machine. definately looks based from BFSP xD

Fanatics seem really fun but i dont think i would run 14 of them. at max 3 per Spear units. probly only 2 per though. anyways, Dwarves rule xD
